Ezekiel 3:17

See Ezekiel 2:1. I; the person that appeared to him, Ezekiel 1:26. It is the great and glorious One. Made thee; appointed by commission; I have qualified by gifts, I have actually sent thee forth, &c. Watchman; night and day to observe whether the enemy approach, and to give notice on pain of death. Hear the word at my mouth: see Ezekiel 2:8. Give them warning; I will give thee notice, thou art then to give warning unto them, and let them know it comes from me, and in mercy, to prevent their final ruin. Be not as a prognosticator, as one that consults the stars, and foretells from the conjunction of them, but own the things thou art to warn them of as from my mouth.
